How to Keep Your Bones Healthy

Strong bones are the foundation of a healthy, active life—yet many people don’t think about bone health until problems arise. Whether you’re young or aging, it’s important to take daily steps to protect your bones and prevent conditions like osteoporosis or fractures.

Calcium and vitamin D are essential for bone strength. Include calcium-rich foods like dairy, green leafy vegetables, and fish in your meals. Sunlight exposure helps the body produce vitamin D, so spend some time outdoors each day—especially during early morning hours.

Exercise matters too. Weight-bearing activities like walking, jogging, or dancing strengthen bones by putting healthy stress on them. Encourage children and older adults alike to stay physically active.

Avoid smoking and excessive alcohol, as these can weaken bone structure over time. For women, especially after menopause, bone density tends to decline, making regular check-ups even more important.

At Hindu Mandal Hospital, we offer bone health assessments, dietary advice, and preventive care to keep your skeletal system strong. It’s never too early—or too late—to take care of your bones.

Your body relies on them every day. Give them the care they deserve.
